Talk about any and all other basketball video games including NBA Jam, NBA Street, college basketball games, and more. General basketball video game discussion and comparison topics are also welcome here.

This will mostly update the Gamecube version of NBA Street Vol. 2, running through the Dolphin emulator for PC, to the 2013-14 season. Rosters, ratings, heights, and names have been updated for the current season, as well as uniforms and some basic faces.

This is an ongoing project, if you want to help us out or need help, check out this forum - http://forums.nba-live.com/viewforum.php?f=72 - and look for the NBASv2HDR threads.

============Installation------------

You must have an ISO file of the game to edit. Do it legally, do it yourself. DO NOT ASK FOR THE GAME.

For updated rosters, you must edit the ISO file by injecting the two files in the downloaded Roster folder into the ISO's database folder. Follow this tutorial to do this - http://youtu.be/wzszCuoMUFUThis requires GCRebuilder - http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/619/

You need Dolphin, the Wii/Gamecube emulator, for playing the updated game - http://www.dolphin-emulator.com/Setting up the emulator is covered in this video - http://youtu.be/-pj1IzHiJ2wAnd is also discussed in detail in this forum thread - http://forums.nba-live.com/viewtopic.php?f=72&t=92118

Importing the included graphics updates is covered in this video - http://youtu.be/Se4jfbIZb4A

I'm anal and can't stand the announcer saying the wrong names for guys that were originally in the game (e.g. KG, Duncan). I'm going change the DB files and the graphics to correct this. Also, I swapped Kyrie (Wally Szczerbiak) with OJ Mayo (Dajuan Wagner) because I'm doing a season with the Cavs and don't like Kyrie being a short white dude with pretty hair. Since this involves changing the filenames of the graphics, to make this easier I have taken an hour to put all of the graphics into folders with each team's name (along with folders for menu Items, other clothing, and other logos). However, I'm having trouble identifying some of the faces. Could someone give me a clue on these?

Jao, when I'm swapping players, should I swap all of the values except player ID (row 14) for both players in xdbplyr.adf? Or would you recommend swapping only the values that are known (viewtopic.php?f=72&t=92233#p1643745)?

- VC's headband is red- It looks like Wade's face is "GNZE69_273c2924_14.png", but the texture doesn't load for him. Antawn Jamison's face dumps to "GNZE69_7834605a_14.png", but when I rename Wade's face to this, it still doesn't load it for him. I dont really understand why not....

I swapped Kyrie with Kyle Korver. Both players look much better. Also, Kobe and KG now have their original ID's back. KG looks much better than before. His body looks much more like him. I'm not sure I'm gonna do any more though, I've had a hell of a time swapping Ray Allen for Chauncey Billups. At some point, its just not worth the trouble and complications. I'll do what I can, and upload the files when I'm done.

See? I got 2 rmtries into switching Amare and Carter and just yelled "FUCK THIS" and violently closed all my open windows haha (if that's even possible)

I'm happy you're taking the initiative though, especially since me and Jao are so burned out on it

Hahah, absolutely. I was half-yelling "HOW COULD HE HAVE ONE GUY'S NAME, STATS AND ICON, BUT ANOTHER GUY'S APPEARANCE, TEAM ASSIGNMENT, AND HEIGHT/WEIGHT?!". Also, how the hell could the player ID, nor row 0, not match what is listed under the team roster? I think it was duncan's that is one off (72 & 73).

- All graphics have been organized into folders, except for the faces that I do not recognize, which are in the root of the Graphics folder.- Kobe Bryant and Kevin Garnett now use their original game player ID's. This means they have their original body/head size, profile pic, and announcer name. Kobe was swapped with Manu Ginobili, Garnett was swapped with Marcin Gortat.- Kyrie Irving was swapped with Kyle Korver. This is a much better fit for both players.

Swapping players involves changing graphics files, players profile for Hex On Steroids, and the xdbplyr.adf & xdbteam.adf database files, which is why all of these files are also included.

Hey there! I'm looking for some help with this mod, well, not specifically with the mod, but installing it. When I try to open my .iso with WinRar, it always says that it's corrupted. I can load it perfectly in dolphin though, and I really want to start playing with the updated rosters.
